Summer Lovin

Here are a few things that I have been obsessed with this summer.

Love and Beauty Illuminating Bronzer
I saw this at Forever 21 and picked it up on a whim. I am loving it for a bronze highlight. It looks amazing on tan skin and give you that right amount of J.lo glow. For $3.80 you need to pick this up.

Milani Bronzer
This was released in a limited edition collection about a month ago but I have been using it literally every day.  This bronzer is insanely creamy and blends on the skin amazingly.  Now that I am tan I use this as an all over powder and then go in and contour with a darker bronzer. It works beautifully and gives your skin a nice glow. If you can track this bad boy down grab it right away. I have not tried any of the permanent Milano bronzer but I would be interested to see if tell quality is the same as this one.

City Color Cosmetics Be Matte Blush
These blushes are some of the best products that I have discovered this year. I picked up a bunch when I was at IMATS NYC in April and I have been using them ever since. The color that I have been loving for summer is Fresh Melon. This bright peachy color gives such a fresh pop of color on the cheeks. These are hands down the best drugstore priced blushes I've ever tried. They are $3.99 a piece and worth every penny.

Too Faced Summer Eyes Palette
This is last year's version but I busted this bad boy out again this year and have been giving it a lot of love. The colors in this palette work together beautifully and I love the pops of color included.

These are some of my summer staples. What have you been loving this summer?

IMATS HAUL PART ONE: CITY COLOR COSMETICS

I had such an amazing time at IMATS NYC last week. I saw a bunch of my favorite beauty vloggers and of course got to try out and purchase a bunch of new cosmetics. First up I stopped at the City Color Cosmetics booth because I've heard nothing but good things about their products; especially their blushes. So I looked around and found some great new products.

First up I went to check out the blushes and I was very surprised when I swatched the testers. I purchased a bunch of their Be Matte blushes and I am very surprised with the quality of these. They are highly pigmented and blendable and I have been trying all of the colors out and they are all amazing.

Next up are the Matte Lipsticks. These are nice and creamy and pigmented without being overly drying. I find that I do have to apply a gloss or balm on top of these after a few hours but overall they are pretty comfortable to wear.

Last but not least are the Matte to Gloss lip colors. I love that there is a gloss that matches the color of the lipstick because the lipstick is just about the same consistency of the matte lipsticks so after a couple hours its nice to have a gloss included to top the lipstick, especially a gloss that is the same color. I love these but when I tried to look on the website to see what other colors there were I was unable to find them so I'm not sure whats going on there but if you can find these definantely pick them up.

Overall I am very happy with the quality of these products. I would definitely check them out if you are looking for some inexpensive products that are of great quality.
